Ron,
I'm planning making more of them. Stag was also used in the original construction, so I'm going to try some Stag on the next one. I found some very nice blades at a good price, although not Damascus. Thanks for the compliments.
Ed,
It took me about 2 to 4 hours per day average for a week and a half to complete. I only work until I start to get bored, or begin to lose my concentration. Once I reach that point I force myself to quit. Otherwise I start getting careless and make mistakes. Some days I may only work for 30 min., others I may work for 6 or 7 hours. Once I get the techniques down , it will be faster.
rhuff and padredan,
Thanks.. I appreciate it.
Ron
